Outreach

We are dedicated to ensuring that our work and research findings also have an impact beyond this project. We strive to communicate our research findings to a wide audience by means of social media, newspaper articles, radio and TV interviews as well as public medical lectures organized by the UMCG. Outside of the clinic and laboratory, our multidisciplinary team of clinicians and scientists are active members of national COVID-19 research groups, education programs, editorial boards, and advisory groups. Interaction with patient groups ensure a shared understanding of our research and how that may facilitate improved patient care and short- and long-term outcome.
